How to read a French provider listing
A listing shows the provider type, tests offered, formats, languages, levels and exam fee. Each fact names the provider page it came from and the date it was checked.
Updated
Each listing on this site shows what the provider publishes on its own page. Every fact has a source note and the date an editor checked the page. A listing is a record, not a recommendation, and it does not mean that any agency endorses the provider. French4PR is a directory. It is not an immigration consultant, not a law firm and not affiliated with any government.
Provider type is the first thing to check. A test centre hosts official exam sessions. A school teaches French, often in classrooms. An online tutor or prep course works remotely. Each listing shows one of these three types.
Tests offered names the tests the provider's own page lists. Common ones are TEF Canada and TCF Canada, which IRCC accepts for Express Entry, and TEFAQ and TCF Québec, which serve Quebec programs. The field can hold several tests. An empty field means the page did not say. It does not mean that none are offered.
Formats show whether the provider works in person, online or both. Choose the format that suits where you live and how you learn.
Languages of instruction lists the languages the provider states. An empty field means unknown. It does not mean French only.
Levels taught shows the CEFR levels the provider states, from A1 to C2. If a provider does not state all its levels, the field can show fewer than it teaches.
Exam preparation is a yes or empty field. Yes means the provider states that it prepares candidates for a named test. Empty means unknown.
Exam fee shows a figure only when the provider publishes a specific amount and an editor has cited it. The fee is in the listing currency. The two Moroccan centres, for example, show a fee in MAD. Exam fees change. Confirm the fee on the provider's own page before you pay.
Source note names the page each fact came from and the date it was retrieved. The listing footer links to the French4PR source record. Use the provider's website link on the listing to check the fact yourself. If the provider's page has changed since that date, write to hello@french4pr.com and an editor will check the listing against the source.
Claimed listings. Rows are flagged for owner review. A provider can claim its listing and add tests, formats, levels and fees that its public page leaves out. A paid plan adds a badge and a higher place on the page. It does not change the cited facts.
Filters. On a city page you can narrow the list by provider type, test, format and exam preparation.
What a listing cannot tell you. Seats, exam dates and fees are set by each centre. No listing can promise a score, a seat or an invitation to apply. For questions about your own case, ask a qualified professional, such as a regulated Canadian immigration consultant or a lawyer.
